Dental care?
I am 60 and take care of my grandsons, so I have little money to use towards dental care. I need a root canal and crown badly on a tooth that shows when I smile. It looks black because I broke part of it off. Do not tell me to get dental insurance as they do not work for 1 yr. Is there a place someone like me can go to get cheaper dental work?

One option available to you is to go to a dental school. They will perform the procedure on you at little cost to you due to them needing you as a patient to test/qualify a particular student (DDS).
No idea where you live. So you're going to have to find a dental school on your own. Most large universities have dental schools.
Besides the dental school there are in some areas public health dental clinics for those with low income. Check with your city health services for locations.
Unfortunately that is the truth of dental insurance. They do not want someone to have insurance, max it out in one month then never pay for the policy again. I would encourage you to locate a dental school perhaps to see if you qualify. If not, then visit this website http://www.healthsavings.ourperfectcard.com I signed up online over 5 years ago for all my family dental needs and they have saved me thousands of dollars on ALL dental services. Including cosmetic, dentures and orthodontics. I have no deductibles and no limits. They even had my very affordable plan active in 2 hours and was able to use it the very same day. good luck and check them out.
try some dental schools where they need patients for their students.
